Effects of Fine-Grained Particles' Migration and Clogging in Porous Media on Gas Production from Hydrate-Bearing Sediments by Jung, Jongwon

“…As a result, multiphase fluid flow during gas production from hydrate-bearing sediments could easily develop clogging in pore throats, where the relative permeability of DW-CO2 in porous media decreases. Accordingly, the relatively permeability of porous media should be evaluated by considering the clogging behavior of fines. 2019 Jongwon Jung et al.…”
